Abandoning sole-sourcing will ‘cripple’ Akufo-Addo’s gov’t – Avedzi

The NPP argued that, sole sourcing allowed corruption, and benefited a privileged few in the Mahama government adding that an Akufo-Addo government will eschew such practice.But according to the Former Chairman of Parliament’s Finance Committee, this choice of the government may delay critical projects since sole-sourcing has its own benefits.

This he said is because going through the normal tendering process could “sometimes take up to about six months with the minimum being three months.”

“So anything you want to procure you have to go through these processes and its going to make governance so difficult for them. And because that is what have been saying let me not have anything against that. I wish them well but I have my doubts and I believe that it is going to put them in a tight corner and it will even have negative effects on this country,” he added.
